  • 10' - Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 15' - While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with Costa Rica winning 100% of all matches.
  • 20' - Costa Rica is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 25' - Costa Rica is showing some good football. However, Costa Rica are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 30' - Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 30 minutes.
  • 35' - Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Costa Rica needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 40' - It looks like no one’s ball. Costa Rica is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 41' - Costa Rica receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 41.
  • 42' - It’s a booking for Costa Rica player. Anthony Contreras gets a Yellow card.

  • 46' - The supporters are chanting for Takuma Asano. He replaces Ayase Ueda on 46 minute.
  • 51' - The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Costa Rica that had 7 games and scored 5 goals.
  • 56' - We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?

  • 76' - The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Jewison Bennette suffering a number of foals already.
  • 81' - Goal! Keysher Fuller scores his 1 goal in 7 matches.
